Patient Rating

Legacy wants every patient to have great care, every time. To help measure and improve patient satisfaction, we send surveys to randomly selected patients after their appointments. We use this feedback from the surveys to improve and enhance the care we offer. It works like this: Real patients give us feedback through Press Ganey, a patient satisfaction survey company. They verify and confirm the results. National Research Corporation, an independent company, provides the technology to show the ratings and comments on our websiteLearn more about our survey.

I wish that I would have come more prepared about questions relating to my hip. I wished that I would have asked Dr. Becker if the inflammation in my hip would eventually go away or if it was a sure thing that I would need a hip replacement in the future. I do want a cortisone shot, but need reassurance that therapy after the shot would be beneficial. I felt as if the doctor just wanted to do surgery.

Dr Becker was unable to continue to provide care as he had an injury. He very quickly referred me to another orthopedic surgeon .I am very comfortable with the new surgeon, unfortunately have to wait an additional month and a half for much needed surgery .

I arrived at hospital at 5:15am. Receptionist put me in wheelchair then we began last bits of intake as soon as I was done there Dr. Becker rolls in looking fresh and alert.he told me exactly what was going to happen step by step he didn't seem rushed even though I knew he had a full day from seeing other patients who attended surgery class. that part was very important to me as I had mentioned to pre-op nurse that I wasn't feeling mentally up for surgery recovery etc. as I had been in severe pain for almost 2 years because of inability to afford insurance. so the whole crew treated me super cool as I believe they communicated amongt themselves about previous micro-surgery and long suffering. I feel blessed that I was able to be fixed by such a team.

doctor has knowledge, but also preconceived ideas about patient health and outcomes. I felt he could have been more helpful or at least more open minded

with Dr. Becker, I felt slightly rushed. Found I still had a few questions about my mobility not addressed at that moment. [comment deleted to protect privacy]

I had fractured my left leg. This was the 2nd follow-up appointment to determine how it is healing. It is healed and I was able to take off the &quot;boot&quot;. I have been to more Legacy facilities and they have all been GREAT!

You people are rather over-the-top on this questionnaire about a five minute check up with Dr. Becker on a knee replacement. Filling this out took longer than the appointment itself.

I didn't realize there were more pre-op/exams to take before arthritic hip replacement could take place! I'm ready for operation NOW, but most not timely as expected.

Dr. Becker will do knee replacement surgery on me so while I received the results of lab tests he ordered on My Health I was not expecting him or his office to contact me unless the results were problematic.

I saw Dr. Becker to discuss knee replacement surgery. He listened carefully and gave me a detailed explanation of the procedure and told me what to expect before and after the procedure. I felt that I was given the opportunity to ask questions and left feeling reassured about the process.

My visits with Dr. Becker are always good. These bothersome surveys are getting to be a real chore so I won't be answering any more of them. Stuff it.

I am transgender and Dr. Becker pushed me to say my birth name after I clearly didn't want to and I know it's unnecessary, as well as pointed out an ovarian cyst that he did NOT thinkwas related to the hip pain I was seeing him for. He did not ask transgender related questions that were unrelated otherwise which is good. At the end of the appointment he told me to quit smoking because nobody wants to do surgery on a smoker and I found this tactic disrespectful and [detail deleted to protect privacy]. I think it would have been more useful to ask if I was trying to quit, to which the answer is yes, and if the answer was no, to explain why it is important and encourage me to quit instead of hollering at me in the hallway as I was leaving. Overall, I found him disrespectful, rude, and somewhat like a bully. I would not recommend Dr. Becker to a friend. My experience with the office staff was mostly good. They seemed respectful and were helpful in setting up my follow-up appointments.
